I see no reason not to start the table right away based on
smbios.sys.product and other criteria. I don't think we need all the
matches that Linux uses, but we can expand the table if we find it so.
Why have a stop gap that's a table that we kludge together when the
real table is of comparable difficulty and wouldn't need to be
reworked.
